Match report   Fulford returned to action after two free weeks with a trip to the Knavesmire home of York Cubs. The first half was a very even affair, with chances at a premium. York Cubs had the first good effort on goal but were denied by a flying save to his right, by Stephen, who was making his Fulford debut. Fulford’s best chance came when a through ball from Isaac, looked to be intercepted by the keeper, but he fumbled the ball and Will pounced on it, but the angle was tight and his shot went wide.

In the second half, Fulford opened the scoring when a left wing corner by Isaac fell to James at the back post and he showed great technique to score right-footed from about 6 yards out. The game was still in the balance though and both teams had good chances and Stephen again made two top saves. York Cubs did have the ball in the net with 15 minutes to go, when a superb left wing cross was volleyed into the roof of the net from close range. It looked a cracking goal from the touchline, but the referee correctly ruled it out for offside.

Fulford had some great chances as the game progressed. Isaac hit the post and then saw a cross-shot cleared off the line. Will then ran on to a through ball from Joe I, but his lob over the keeper went agonisingly wide of the right hand post.

Then with three minutes to go, Cubs got an equaliser when their striker broke through and slipped the ball past the on-rushing Stephen. Stephen had a great game on his debut and was the much-deserved Man of the Match.
